Ever crave real northern italian food? The kind you find in Italy? Sometimes in Boston's north end? Well..look no further..La Cucina Italiana has exquisite cuisine. The setting is like in a trattoria and you can show up dressed casually or formal...you won't feel out of place. Make reservations..the waiting lines can be long, but the food is worth the wait.
